i know need use open url in browser when click on link

 gethostservices().showdocument(link.gettext());  

but don't know how listen/track click event different links

i made small example application you,

import java.util.arraylist; import java.util.list; import javafx.application.application; import javafx.event.actionevent; import javafx.event.eventhandler; import javafx.scene.scene; import javafx.scene.control.button; import javafx.scene.control.hyperlink; import javafx.scene.control.listview; import javafx.scene.control.textfield; import javafx.scene.layout.anchorpane; import javafx.scene.layout.hbox; import javafx.scene.layout.vbox; import javafx.stage.stage;  public class listlist extends application {      final listview listview = new listview();     @override     public void start(stage primarystage) {          list<hyperlink> links = new arraylist<>();          anchorpane pane = new anchorpane();         vbox vbox = new vbox();         final hyperlink link = new hyperlink("http://blog.professional-webworkx.de");         hyperlink link2= new hyperlink("http://www.stackoverflow.com");          links.add(link);         links.add(link2);          for(final hyperlink hyperlink : links) {             hyperlink.setonaction(new eventhandler<actionevent>() {                  @override                 public void handle(actionevent t) {                     gethostservices().showdocument(hyperlink.gettext());                 }             });         }          listview.getitems().addall(links);         hbox hbox = new hbox();         final textfield urlfield = new textfield();         button b = new button("add links");         hbox.getchildren().addall(b, urlfield);          b.setonaction(new eventhandler<actionevent>() {              @override             public void handle(actionevent t) {                 addlink(urlfield.gettext().trim());                 urlfield.clear();             }         });         vbox.getchildren().add(hbox);         vbox.getchildren().add(listview);         pane.getchildren().add(vbox);         scene scene = new scene(pane, 800, 600);         primarystage.settitle("hello world!");         primarystage.setscene(scene);         primarystage.show();     }      /**      * @param args command line arguments      */     public static void main(string[] args) {         launch(args);     }      private void addlink(final string url) {         final hyperlink link = new hyperlink(url);         link.setonaction(new eventhandler<actionevent>() {              @override             public void handle(actionevent t) {                 gethostservices().showdocument(link.gettext());                 //openbrowser(link.gettext());             }          });         listview.getitems().add(link);     }      private void openbrowser(final string url) {         gethostservices().showdocument(url);     } } 

if enter new url in textfield , click on button, new link added linklist , displayed on listview. everytime add new link, .setonaction() method set right url open.

maybe can use starting point further developing app.
